Above Board is a speakeasy-style cocktail bar hidden above Beermash on Smith St in Collingwood — guests enter through what one reviewer calls "good luck finding it," via a back door and up to the first floor. The small, intimate space keeps seating limited, which regulars say only adds to the exclusive feel.
The cocktail list, including drinks like the Affinity and a well-regarded martini, is repeatedly praised alongside attentive, humble service from the bar team. Reviewers describe the atmosphere, music and decor as impeccable for a night out that feels a little different from the usual Smith St bar crawl.
It holds a 4.8 rating from 526 reviews, making it one of the highest-rated bars in Collingwood.
